Ran that through congressman/senator double speak to english translator and got this:
1) You're unable to offer us election funding and/or a high paying job after we leave office so we're not going to do anything. 2) The ISP's know whats best for themselves and screwing their customers.
- fuball63 9y agoI understand that libertarians believe the free market should determine winners and losers, and like any viewpoint, there's truth in it when not taken as an unwavering silver bullet with no exceptions. What bothers me so much about this is that net neutrality should be a no brainer when it comes to "maximize political freedom and autonomy, emphasizing freedom of choice, voluntary association, individual judgment and self-ownership." (wikipedia). Why is corporate control of our daily lives so acceptable but government control opposed indiscriminately?
- Avernar 9y agoI all for the free market at the ISP level if and only if the last mile is run by neutral third party with equal access to all ISPs. As for corporate control is so acceptable and government control isn't is because the corps control the media and the government. Anytime someone in the government tries to control the corps there's a big media backlash against it.
